3 cups cooked and cooled rotini
2 cups shredded swiss cheese
1 package 10 ounces frozen cut green bean thawed and drained
1 package 10 ounces frozen green peas, thawed and drained
1 cup green pepper strips cut in half
1/2 cup sliced scallions
1 cup chopped cucumber for the dressing:
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1. In a small bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients.
2. Mix until well-blended; set aside.
3. If not serving immediately, cover and chill until ready to use.
4. Place the cooled rotini in a large bowl and toss with the remaining ingredients, except the dressing.
5. Cover and chill until ready to use.
6. Just before serving, mix the dressing again and toss into the salad.
This is a really simple throw-together dressing that works well with other seasonings, fresh herbs, lime juice instead of lemon, and even lowfat mayonnaise and yogurt, too.
